So heres the thing, people can make bad games sometimes. People can make more than one bad game in a row. People can overpromise and undeliver.
I dont like Molyneux as a person because he overhypes the shit out of his games. I like his past projects though. Populous, Dungeon Keeper, Black and White, Fable are some really fun games he was involved with. Even though he hasnt put out anything worthwhile in 15 years, I have no problem in trying out anything new he does. What do I have to lose anyway?
I never played this game but I watched gameplays on youtube and I must say without insulting someone who like it that I don’t like it because it looks like unfinished game to me compared to other games in terms of graphics.
Like for many other people, Valve single player experiences were one of my favorite of all time growing up. I considered both Half-Life and Portal to be masterpieces. It’s true they’ve always been distracted with multiplayer games as well, things like Counter-Strike or Team Fortress and I did play them for sure, because I...
On the flip side, they still have that Valve spice. Alyx was worthy of the Half Life badge, something I was skeptical was still possible after all that time.
Valve gives you access to a game and tells you not to spew your mouth off. A gentleman’s agreement if you will.
You spew your mouth off and valve takes access away.
shocked pikachu face
This is a non-issue of you ask me. A person, who happens to be a writer, got access to the game through a steam friend and was asked not to talk about it but thought they could just not agree to a warning and write about it anyway? I got access too and i didnt write about the game. I get to go back and play it today, they cant.
Damn, imagine if it passes and devs just don’t release in the eu anymore. I mean the best scenario we are all hoping for is it passes and is obliged by everywhere due to the Brussels effect. Doesnt mean it will though.
In the end, it may pass but publishers stop selling in the EU in an official capacity but europeans still digitally buy the games anyway…
Forcing you to sell at the same price as on steam when customers will be downloading from steam servers anyway is not sketchy but very fair.
As a developer you could set the game price on steam to a high number and sell keys on your own site for cheaper. Anyone who buys a key then used steam resources to download it. The dev keeps the 30% since its not a sale through steam. Yeah id like free file hosting with terabytes of bandwidth too please.
If you sell the game yourself and provide the files, you can set lower prices. This is fair and valve doesn’t restrict that.
They took away access to a game we payed for and replaced it with an inferior product with the hopes and dreams to one day have single player content… which you would have to pay for anyway. Thats all i have to say on the matter of overwatch. Fuck blizzard.
Kids these days don’t know shit man. Skyrim had been out long enough to concieve a kid and watch him graduate. Oblivion might as well have been a DOS title to them.
I haven’t played it but that doesn’t sound racist to me if the context is right. There are cannibal tribes today. They are black skinned. This is fact.
I love both the games and I’ll remember them fondly forever and the time in my life i played them in. I honestly wouldn’t mind if they ended the series. Guess ellie has to die sometime.
Yeah I wasn’t looking forward to a last of us live service game. I’m glad Sony didn’t grab them by the balls and pushed more on this as I’m sure they’d jump at the opportunity to have a cash cow live service on their hands.
It did look like naughty dog was having a tough time with this one seeing how we’ve had no updates on it despite being in development for 4 years? Certainly didn’t feel like their hart was in it. I hope this is a weight off their shoulders and now can focus on the next project.
I highly doubt it will be Xbox only. Microsoft doesn’t do that anymore and if they are bankrolling this, it would be very strange if a Japanese studio suddenly decided to release a game on Xbox, console only. Expect PC as well.
What do you mean? Starfield is on PC. Every MS game since 2018? is on PC. Does PC+Xbox now mean xbox exclusive? You literally dont need an xbox console to play Microsoft published games anymore. That was what I was getting at. Never expected a PS release if Microsoft is bankrolling it, thats a given.
The Witcher 3 had 16 free dlc packs after release. I have no idea what they were or their distinction. Was definitely a marketing term for content updates that they can’t sell because the content is so miniscule.

I mean, the only game on the GOTY list where the hype is still going is Baldurs Gate 3. At least thats how it feels to me. Granted Im not into nintendo games as I once was both the new Zelda and Mario felt like they flew by me. Maybe it was the stacked year. maybe I didnt have as much time for gaming or maybe Im not seeing them much on the internet. BG3 sure feels like its cementing itself into the 2023 zeitgeist.
While Take-Two is riding high on their announcement that a GTA 6 trailer is coming, its CEO has some…interesting ideas on how much video games could cost, part of a contingent of executives that believe games are underpriced, given their cost, length or some combination of the two.
Awesome proposal. Some indie games would suck me dry and I’d be paying 1/4 of the price for AAA releases! Is this the redistribution of wealth Marx has been talking about?
